Since Queen Victoria ruled the crown, Eastbourne has been the ideal destination for a seaside vacation. This charming coastal town’s attractiveness has grown over the years due to its moderate climate and convenient access from London. Even if you aren’t quite ready for a swim, you can still enjoy the sea air by strolling down one of the five miles of award-winning shingle beaches.
With its amusement arcade, cafes, shops, and nightclub, Eastbourne’s historic pier, which was constructed in 1866, provides entertainment all day long and well into the night. You can also take a speed boat ride from here around the sea.
Why not relax and observe the waves after spending the day exploring the town’s museums, art galleries, and other antique stores? Sporting activities which are popular in the town include golf and tennis and the watersports festival Eastbourne Extreme attracts lots of visitors each year. Another popular event in the calendar is Airbourne, a fantastic international flying show. For a spot of culture check out the town’s four theatres offering an eclectic choice of shows, musicals and plays throughout the year. Eastbourne offers guests a vast choice of activities whatever the weather or whatever time of year it is.
